Ditto in my office in ORR. People are casually working as if nothing has happened!! :deadhorse
We are near MG road and felt that shivering. Went out of the building and later a colleague called from Chennai and informed about the earthquake.
I felt it twice or thrice within 2 mins
Tremors felt in many parts of Cochin and Kerala. My wife felt the quake.
Colleagues felt tremors in our office on Old Airport Road.. We were asked to evacuate the building.. Now came back to office
PS: I never felt any tremors though

I wast just telling my friend that I am sensing a slight shake.
Initially, I thought it was only me but my confirmed he felt it too !!
5 minutes later , we were evacuated from our building at Manyata Tech Park.
My friend was to leave for Jakarta in couple of days. Hope casualties are minimal.

Spot on. I was surprised too.
I could see only IBM (D block) evacuating the building. For others around, it was just an amusing sight. :Frustrati

The plates that which are supporting us has become restless. This is a natural phenomenon that has been happening for ages.
Only because population of the world exploded, we see many casualty.
